Progressive House | You Need To Hear NightRider’s Wyclef Jean & Avicii’s “Divine Sorrow” Remix
Posted by VMan on December 18, 2014
Wow, this remix by NightRider of Avicii and Wyclef Jean’s “Divine Sorrow” is divine, and a truly inspiring piece of music. The best part of it all, all the proceeds for the sale of this project go to RED, and AIDS Awareness. I vote more collaborations between progressive house producers and reggae artists, hint: Bob Sinclar “Love Generation” style, I guarantee these are hits waiting to be made! This is a must listen!

If you’re like me, waiting for the clock to strike 6 to get off work, here’s Samuel Proffitt’s official remix of Australian band Sun City’s “Paralyse” to calm your nerves until then. And irony of the sort, with producers looking for that warm tropical sound, Samuel wants you to “take a few moments alone, and enjoy Winter,” so press play and do just that! This is a must listen and a must download!

House | Jessie J ft. 2 Chainz – Burnin’ Up (Don Diablo Remix)
Posted by BIGLIFE on November 22, 2014
I despise major label contracted remixes. There’s something about knowing that an out of touch person at a label grasping for relevancy reaches out to notable (actually cool) producers to remix their mindless top 40 radio smash. Just doesn’t sit well. That said, I’m a forgiving blogger and can read between the lines. Earlier this month Don Diablo dropped his “Burnin’ Up” remix via Casablanca Records. It was featured this morning on Oliver Heldens latest “Heldeep Radio” episode, and rightfully so.
This “Burnin’ Up” remix is indeed fire. Hats off to Don Diablo for bringing the heat.
House | Lion Babe – Jump Hi (Todd Edwards Remix)
Posted by BIGLIFE on November 18, 2014
When I heard this track on The Magician’s “Magic Tape 47” I spit my Mountain Dew out and I wasn’t even drinking any. I scrambled relentlessly looking for the link. After a considerable search, I finally found it. Premiered on BBC Radio 1, NY’s Lion Babe enlisted Todd Edwards to remix “Jump Hi” featuring Childish Gambino. To say he smashed it would be doing him a disservice. It’s the best remix of them all. Incredible vibes. Huge chune. Stay up to date on what Todd is up next via his Soundcloud account.
Hats off to Todd and Echo Location Talent.

I was put on to Keljet during my time in Amsterdam for ADE, and a part from being super cool dudes, and talented producers, they really knew how to put on a show, and I’ve been a fan since! This time around, these guys remixed Tobtok’s “Savanna,” and it’s bringing sunlight to this rainy day, on that uplifting soul vibe. This is one you’re going to want to hear, the vocals are orgasmic, it’s a must listen!
House | Kanye West – Deep/Slaves/Mercy (SomeOneHad2DoIt Edition)
Posted by BIGLIFE on November 14, 2014
Well, here we go. Another anonymous producer on our hands. At least that’s the way it’s been billed and pitched to the masses. I can’t blame these producers for posting anonymously. Fans are close minded and will turn on you fast if you release something they’re not accustomed to. SomeOneHad2DoIt steps up to the plate to put his “future house” spin on Kanye West’s signature tracks with impressive results.
Do we have another ZHU on our hands? I’d argue it’s too early to tell. The track is good but not great. What I don’t like is their aesthetic. Using Kate Upton (who’s built like a rectangle) isn’t my cup of tea and cheapens the song in my opinion. Further, it’s less impressive from a creative standpoint now that many are attempting to follow the model that Jake Udell largely pioneered. Just my two cents.
Criticism aside, I’m sure this will show up on Oliver’s “Heldeep Radio” soon enough.
House | Rixton – Wait On Me (CALVO House Remix)
Posted by BIGLIFE on November 12, 2014
I hate when artists that we’ve posted tweet at me to post their tracks. In this case, I didn’t mind because CALVO is one of my favorite obscure up and coming producers. He’s a real sicko and makes damn good tracks. CALVO is in the running as one of my favorite artists at the moment. Need more CALVO.
